PNGKNEY DSPATCH <n **» y- J f\- ' '41, Vol. XXXV Pnckney, Lvngston County, Mchgan, Thursday, Aprl 21, 1921 No. 10 THE MASONC BULDNG Work on the new Masonc buldng has begun ths week. The plans of the buldng and the Thos. Read Buldng are made so that the front wll show a large frontage of three stores wth the lodge rooms above two. The accepted plans show a facade that Pnckney may well be proud of* Bach store wlt have exceptonally large dsplay fronts of plate glass. An ornamental belt course separates the two floors, the desgn beng pcked out n pressed brck. The structure wll be bult of corrugated pressed brck whch s already OB the ground. The Masonc emblems square and compass, n cut stone, wll appear n the upper front. The Masonc commttee and Mr. Read have shown excellent judgement n selectng ths plan for Pnckney's new busness block. REAL ESTATE BOOMS The transactons n Pnckney real estate have been so numerous durng the past week that G. W. Tceple who has done all the conveyancng has been busy overtme to make the transfers. Several peces of desrable vacant property have charged hands and the rvn Kennedy Shop on West Man Street has been bought by Ross Read who ntends to remodel t nto a store. r ^ Jfl -fcl. 8» resdence buldng lota wll be placed on the market at very reasonable fgures to partes who expect to buld soon. t now looks as though there would be good pro n buldng houses for the expected demand from Ford employees, as there are now no vacant houses n town. Most dealers are showng the proper sprt n not advancng prces too hgh rather than that they offer to sell choce lots for resdence or buldness purposes at reasonable fgures to to those who wll buld ot once. Ths pocy s worthy of prase. Good buldng lota can stll be bought n Pnckney at far prces.

The boys are expected to wn a majorty of ther games ths year, Campbell, the curve ball artst, and Kettler the man wth the smoke, can be depended upon, to hold ther own wth the best ptchers n the county. Cook and Shorty Campbell behnd the bat make u par of very dependable recevers, lkely to out-judge and outthrow all opposton. At frst Dean Reason wth hs reach of arm and coolness of head s bound to make one of the most valuable frst sackers Pnckney has had n some tme. Gerald McCluskey s probably the best feldng short stop n the county. Cook and Campbell wll alternate at second whle Campbell and Kettler wll alternate at thrd. Hall and Hooker are the utlty nfelders.

Washngton, D. C, Aprl 12. n hs message to congress, Presdent Warren 6. Hardng sad n part: MEMBERS OF THE CONGRESS-You have been called n extraordnary aeason to gve your consderaton to natonal problema far too preaalng- to be long- neglected. We face our taaks of legslaton and admnstraton amd condtons as dffcult as our government has ever contemplated. Under our poltcal system the people of the Unted States have charged the new congress and the new admnstraton wth the soluton the readjustments, reconstructon and restoraton whch must follow n the wake of war. t may be regretted that we were so lly prepared for war's aermath, so lttle made ready to return to the ways of peace, but we are not to be dscouraged. ndeed, we must be the more frmly resolved to undertake our work wth hgh hope, and nvte every factor n our cltlaenshp to Jon n the effort to fnd our normal, onward way agan. The Amercan people have apprased the stuaton, and wth that tolerance and patence whch go wth understandng they wll gve to us the nfluence of delberate publc opnon whch ultmately becomes the edct of any popular government. They are measurng some of the stern necesstes, and wll jon n the gve ^and take whch s the essental to frm reestablshment Home Problems Frst Frst n mnd must be the soluton of ur problems at home, even though some phases of them are nseparatebly lnked wth our foregn relatons. The surest procedure n *Y«ry government s to put ts own house n order. anow of no more pressng problem at home than to restrct our natonal exlnes of motor traffc n nterstate commerce. The laws governng federal ad should be amended and strengthened. The federal agency of admnstraton should be elevated to the mportance and vested wth authorty comparable to the work before t. Lnked wth ral and hghway s the problem of water transportaton- nland, coastwse and transoceanc. Bg Merchant Marne. t s not necessary to say t to eongress, but have thought thla to be a tng occason to gve notce that the Unted 8tates means to establsh and mantan a great merchant marne. Ths republc can never realse ts rghteous aspratons n commerce, can never be worthy the tradtons of the early days of the expandng republc untl the mllons of tons of shppng: whch we now possess are co-ordnated wth our nland transportaton and our shppng* has government encouragement, not government operaton, n carryng our cargoes under our flat;, over regularly operated routes, to every market n the world agreeable to Amercan exchanges. Urges U. 8.

Qur very mmedate concern s for the crppled solders and those deeply needng the helpng hand of government. Conscous of the generous ntent of congress, and the publc concern for the crppled and dependant, nvted the servces of a volunteer commttee to nqure nto the admnstraton of the bureau of war rsk nsurance, the federal board for vocatonal tranng and other agences of government n carng for the ex-solders, salors and marnes of the World war. t s needless to call your attenton to the unfnshed busness nherted from the precedng congress. The appropraton blls for army and navy wll have your early consderaton. Nether branch of the government can be unmndful of the call for reduced expendture fo rtheee departments of our natonal defense. The government s n accord wth the wsh to elmnate the burdens of heavy armament The Unted 8tates ever wll be n harmony wth such a movement toward the hgher attanments of peace.

A fght aganst the ralroads of the state to brng down freght rates s beng planned by the Mchgan Traffc league, an organzaton composed of the more mportant chambers of commerce and manufacturers of the state, says Frank Pck, traffc drector of the local chamber. Mr. Pck. says a formal complant wll be fled at Lansng and court acton wll probably follow. "The result of general freght adjustments last year mposes a heavy burden on Mchgan nterests and has undoubtedly had an nfluence on the ndustral development," sad Mr. Pck. "When the petton for ncreased rates was submtted by the ralroads last May, the Mchgan Traffc leagues endeavored to brng about an adjustment n Mchgan rate structure concurrently wth the consderaton for a general rate advance. The commsson prevented the league from followng ths course." Varous commttees are already actve n preparaton of data, and the fnance commttee, of whch Mr. Pck s charman, s about to open a short campagn to rase funds to conclude the fght.

Fre Destroys Famous Hotel. Santa Barbara, Calf. Fre destroyed the Ambassador hotel here, one of the largest hostelres on the Pacfc coast and known to toursts all over the country. So far as known, no lves were lost. The damage s estmated at $1,500,000. U. S. Demands Shp's Release. Buenos Ares. A demand was made on the Argentne government by Frederc J.

Our current expendtures are runnng at the rate of approxmately $5,000,000,000 a year, and the burden s unbearable. There are two agences to be employed n correcton: One s rgd resstance n appropraton and the other s the utmost economy n admnstraton. Let us have both., Must Readjust Taxes. The frst substantal relef from the tax burden must come for the present from the readjustment of nternal taxes and the revson or repeal of those taxes whch have become unproductve and are so artfcal and burdensome as to defeat ther own purpose. A prompt and thoroughgong revson of the nternal tax laws, made wth due regard to the protecton of the revenues, s n my judgment a requste to the revval of busness actvty n ths country. The urgency for an nstant tarff enactment, emergency n character and understood by our people that t s for the emergency only, cannot be too much emphassed. beleve n the protecton of Amercan ndustry, and t s our purpose to pmsper Amerca frst. The maturer revson of our tarff laws should be based on the polcy of protecton, resstng that selfshness whch turns to greed, but ever concerned wth that productvty at home whch s the source of alt abdng good fortune. A very mportant matter s the establshment of the government's busness on a busness bass. There can be no complete correcton of the hgh lvng cost untl government cost s notably reduced. Let me most heartly commend the enactment of legslaton provdng for the natonal budget system. One condton n the busness world may well receve your tnqdry. Deflaton has been n progress, but has faled to reach the mark where t can be proclamed to the great mass of consumers. Reduced cost of basc producton has been recorded, but hgh cost of lvng has not yelded n lke proporton. have asked- the federal trade commsson for a report of ts observatons and t attrbutes, n the man, the falure to adjust consumers' cost to basc producton costs to the exchange of nformaton by "open-prce assocatons." whch operate, evdently wthn the law, to the very great advantage of ther members and equal dsadvantage to the consumng.publc. Wants Helpful Probe. Wthout the sprt of hostlty or haste n accusaton of proeerng, some sutable nqury by congress mght speed the prce readjustment to normal relatonshp, wth helpfulness to both producer and consumer. A measurng rod of-far prces wll satsfy the country and gve us a busness revval to end all depresson and unemployment. The great nterest of both producer and consumer naeea, an naustral and com tnerdal lfe, from agrculture to fnancen the problems of transportaton wll fnd ts reflex n your concern to ad re-establshment, to restore effcency, and brng transportaton cost nto a helpful relatonshp rather than contnue t as a hndrance to resumed actvtes. On the subject, of ralroads the Presdent sad n part. Effcent operaton "at a cost wthn that 'whch the trae wl! bear.... Hallway rate* and costs of operaton must be reduced.". "The remanng obstacles whch are the hertance of captalstc exstoltaton must be removed and labor must 'lon management n understandng that the subtle whch pays s the publc to be served and smple justce s the rght and wll contnue to be the rght of all the.seoolo."

Spurns Superauthorty. The am to assocate natons to prevent war, preserve peace am promote cvlsaton our people most cordally applauded. We yearned for ths new nstrument of justce, but we can have no part n a commttal to any agency of force n unknown contngences; we can recognze no superauthorty. Manfestly the hghest purpose of the League of Natons was defeated n lnkng t wth the treaty of peace and makng t the enforcng agency of the vctors of the war. nternatonal assocaton for permanent peace must be conceved solely as an nstrumentalty of justce, unassoclated_wth the passons of yesterday, and not so consttuted as to attempt the dual functons of a poltcal nstrument of the conquerors and of an agency of peace. There can be no prosperty for the fundamental purposes Bought to be acheved by any such assocaton so long as t s an organ of any partcular treaty or commtted to the attanment of the specal ams of any naton or group of natons. t would be unwse to undertake to make a statement of future polcy wth respect to European affars n such a declaraton of a state of peace. n correctng the falure of the executve, n negotatng the most mportant treaty n the hstory of the naton, to recognze the consttutonal powers of the senate we would go to the other extreme, equally objectonable, f congress or the senate should assume the functon of the executve. Our hghest duty s the preservaton of the consttutonal powers of each, and the promoton of the sprt of co-operaton so essental to* our common welfare. Stuaton s nvolved. t would be dle to declare for separate treates of peace wth the central powers on the assumpton that these alone would be adequate, because the stuaton s so nvolved that our peace engagements cannot gnore the old world relatonshp and the settlements already effected, nor s t desrable to do so n preservng our own rghts and contractng our future relatlonhps. Nether congress nor the people needs my assurance that a request to negotate needed treates of peace would be as superfluous and unnecessary as t s techncally neffectve, and know n my own heart there s none who would wsh to embarass the executve n the performance of hs duty when we are all so eager to turn dsappontment and delay nto gratfyng accomplshment Wants Senate Advce. n an all-mpellng wsh to do the most and best for our own publc, and mantan ts hgh place among natons, and at the same tme make the fullest offerng of justce to them, shall nvte n the most practcal way the advce of the senate, aer acquantng t wth all the condtons to be met and oblgatons to be dscharged, along wth our own rghts to be safeguarded. Pru cence n makng the program ad confldent co-operaton n makng t effectve cannot lead us far astray. We can rendev no effectve servces to humanty untl we prove anew our own capacty for co-operaton n the co-ordnaton of powers contemplated n the Consttuton, and no covenants whch gnore our assocatons n the war can be made for the future. No hejpful socety of natons can be founded on justce and commtted to peace untl the covenants re-establshng peace are sealed by the natons whch were at war.

Ths perod of sem-unrest s causng more thnkng and plannng for the future than probably at any tme n the past. The desre for personal and fnunclaj ndependence s growng. To secure tlls, the frst real source of wealth s the land tself. That s the soluton. Durng the era of hgh prces, doubtless there was some nflaton of hnd values. So the new man the young man wshng to make a start on a farm was eonfronted wth the problem of the land he wanted havng gone beyond hs lmted captal. He must seek elsewhere. Two decades ago. and less, good farmng land could be bought n Canada at four dollars an acre, but as the demand ncreased and ts productvty was proven, prces advanced. There has been no undue nflaton, though, and prces today are very reasonable. Some day. when the country s settled, land wll brng a much hgher prce n Western Canada. Today land prces range for unmproved. $18 to $25 an acre; mproved, at $30 up. The productve value s almost beyond estmate. The reports of those who have been farmng these lands, makng money and enjoyng every personal freedom, are avalable and can be secured on applcaton. t s apparent that ths last bg avalable farmng area of Western Canada wljl tend, to no small extent, to dspel some of the unrest that s so prevalent today among the younger men, who have had a taste of better thngs and who ntend to have them n the future.
